My husband, our friend, and I came into Sagebrush Cantina to celebrate our friend's birthday a few weeks back. This was a favorite place for my friends and I to go to back in the 90's to 2000s. We went to listen to music and eat great food!! We decided it had been too long since coming here, so we wanted to check it out again. The owner, Arturo, and his daughter were absolutely delightful! There was a small error in what we ordered, and it wasn't anything serious either, but the owner Arturo, came over to our table and felt terrible. He wanted nothing but the best service for his customers! He proceeded to give us desserts on the house and checked back to be sure everything was great, asked if there was anything else he could do, etc... He is so gracious and kind that it was just so exceptionally nice. I apologize that it took a while to get to this review, but it definitely did not go unnoticed. Thank you again for helping to make our friend's birthday so special!! We will definitely be back next time we come to Calabasas!! :) read more

I attended a graduation luncheon and had a wonderful time at Sagebrush Cantina. The customer service was excellent! Food was always available. The patio had a great space for the luncheon! Food was flowing: Pizza, Fruit platter, Chips and Salsa, Buffalo wings, Quesadillas, Chicken Satay, Iced Tea, Lemonade and Water. A great time held by all. Staff allowed the hostess to share video of the graduate. Such a great time for family and friends to fellowship with each other and celebrate the high school graduate. read more

I've been here multiple times, and I'd describe the food as mediocre overall. We've had a few good dishes, but we've also had several that were forgettable. The desserts are much better than the main menu. The restaurant is huge and has a cool atmosphere, but the service is consistently slow. Every time we've visited, we've waited around 30 minutes just to get drinks, even when the restaurant wasn't packed. On one occasion, we had to go find someone and ask for them ourselves. The valet parking is also a little strange. I don't mind paying for valet, especially since it's affordable, but it doesn't really match the restaurant's overall feel. read more

I can't believe i paid $65 for the Brunch. I don't drink so the bottomless mimosas with cheap champagne should not be automatically included in the price. The table, chairs and floor were sticky! The food was BLAHHH at most. I have now been there twice...the first and the last! read more

And the reason for Only 3 Stars is this: the food was average and the service was also average. But on a positive note the server named Chelsea was professional and very pleasant which made it worth the wait time. Bikers4Fun.com will return one more time in hopes that the restaurant gets all their department in sync and running smoother. read more

Been here back to back days Saturday night and Sunday afternoon and the service was great both times. The crowd is older but not the grumpy old kind. The live music is fantastic and very talented. I forget the band name but they can jam. Food is good and parking is easy. Would recommend. read more

Sagebrush Cantina - Mexican Near Me - Calabasas, California

Attended a fundraiser event here. We were set up in a tent, right off the parking lot, full bar, well lit and round tables of 10. Had an old rustic southern vibe. Food stations were set up to choose your food items while servers took your drink order,starters and dessert. Pasta Primavera, fettuccine Alfredo, mashed potatoes and gravy, Grilled chicken, roast beef by the slice and rolls were on the menu. All of the items were pretty good. The old fashioned and both Mexican and Moscow Mules were popular cocktails of the night. Had a good time, raised a lot of money at a cool place read more

So far I've been here for brunch, lunch and dinner. My favorite has to be Sunday brunch! Live mariachi band, omelette bar and bottomless mimosas. It's always good vibes here. The food overall is mediocre. Don't expect to eat fine quality here but it does the job if you just want to have regular Mexican food, good portion sizes and good vibes. It is a little overpriced for what you're eating so I wouldn't come here when I want to eat food quality Mexican food. However they do have a a good variety so I'll give them that. Parking is valet parking only and might be tough to find street parking. There's plenty of spots to sit at including the two large outside patio spaces, inside and the bar inside. Overall food, chill spot to have a good time. But again wouldn't make this my top choice for food. read more

I came for Thursday night drag queen bingo. The actual bingo with was a blast. The host Roxy Wood (https://www.instagram.com/foxxyroxywood) put in a fun show. Unfortunately I still don't plan on going back. Sorry Roxy, I'll catch you somewhere else. Another yelp review described the crowd as MAGA rednecks. This is absolutely correct. They seem to cater to this crowd so it may appeal so some people but not me. On top of the nonstop stares, several patrons went out of their way to try to make me feel uncomfortable (I was the only black person there). One going so far to loudly make a discouraging comment about Kamala Harris as I walked by. Our server was clearly overwhelmed which resulted in rude, sporadic service. The reviews about the food are true. The food was awful. We ordered nachos - cold and bland. On the plus side, the drinks were strong & fairly cheap. The valet staff is very friendly. Valet parking. read more

Ordered their tacos and it was absolutely horrible. The fries and drinks were ok, but their tacos were the worst I ever had. Flavorless and stale. I should have sent it back. Very crowded place, so staff is understandably overwhelmed, but geez, what happened to flavorful, fresh food? read more

Sagebrush Cantina - flavorless and stale tacos - Mexican Near Me - Calabasas, California

I have lived in So. Cal. for the majority of my life, knew of Sagebrush Cantina of course, but never had been here. Decided to try it out for a business lunch for an out of town client for something different. They have a beautiful outside area and patio dining, so of course we had to sit outside and enjoy the So Cal weather. Our server greeted us right away and was very nice, a big group came in right after us, but she was still very attentive. As soon as we sat down, we had chips and salsa on the table, which is always a plus. The chips were decent and the salsa had good flavor, but very middle of the road as far as spice level and taste. I did order their Habanero salsa, which costs a couple extra bucks, but worth it, spice level is there, has a kick and great flavor, so well worth it for me, I prefer spice. She kept our drinks full, which is huge for me. We ordered and our food came out quick, another positive. I decided to go with the asada tacos, comes with 2 tacos and a side of rice and beans. Would have expected three tacos for the price tag being almost $20. I did enjoy the asada inside the tacos, but the corn tortillas were just OK. Having hand made would make them amazing. Rice and beans were also a 2.5/5. It is disappointing that their menu is mainly Mexican food and we are in So Cal where there is some of the greatest Mexican food around and their food falls short in that regard. A few tweaks and some Abuela love would really elevate this spot. Sagebrush Cantina is located in the old town district of Calabasas,m. Inside and the grounds are historic and amazing. Feels like an old West town and you are really walking in the footsteps of the history of So Cal. They have been around since 1974 and have hosted many concerts and events over the years as well as stars. On the day I visited Emelio Estevez was there eating lunch, pretty cool. For the historic significance of this place, decor, concerts, grounds, etc. 5/5. Food on the other hand a disappointing 2.5/5. Averaged out to 4 stars, being generous due to the history here and deserves respect for that. Enjoy! read more

Sagebrush Cantina - Atmosphere - Mexican Near Me - Calabasas, California

Their Sunday brunch is always a must! Tons of food variety and not to mention the quick service - out mimosas were consistently topped off and our dirty plates were removed from the table before we could even return with the next. The mix of mariachi, cover bands, and Djs make for a great time filled with community and lots of dancing! Also, special shoutout to Hawk in Security for always making sure the environment stays a safe and lighthearted space. He always makes us feel so welcomed and is one of the many reasons Sagebrush is a favorite spot! Would love to see this place get a photobooth. Think it would fit the vibe nice and make for a cool souvenir :) read more

I attended last weekend, Sunday brunch. It's $65 per adult! Yes it includes bottomless mimosas, coffee, fountain drinks, and orange juice. Not worth it. I was the DD so I didn't have mimosas. They charge for paying with your credit card. The menudo was canned menudo. They charge $7 for parking. Food was okay. Ambiance was okay. The service was so so. I had to get up and ask for my soft drink. read more

I had a great experience here. I had their quesadilla and my son had their chicken tacos plate. Both were fresh and excellent! We were there at lunchtime and the place was not too busy so we got some really great service and our server was friendly and helpful. Very comfortable and casual mood. I like to tip accordingly when I get great service like we had today. She was very nice and so accommodating. We also topped off our lunch with a classic margarita for each of us! Yum! Yum! Yummy! I recommend trying this! read more

I went to the Sagebrush 40 years ago and my experience was much better then. This time, the service was good but the food and atmosphere were mediocre. I had enchiladas rancheros, it was greasy and the sauce was almost non existent. I also felt the restaurant itself was a little dirty. Not sure if I would go back. read more

I have been coming here for years. They have good Mexican food and ice blended margaritas. It's a fun place to go and I'd recommend it for that. read more

Came in for a small bite and a cocktail after a day at the beach and really enjoy this place. I haven't been here in many many years and it looks like they've really expanded it. Huge outdoor seating areas and a very large indoor seating and bar areas. Lovely misters everywhere to keep you cool during the hot days. Drinks were made well and came out quickly. We shared the El Matador and the Thai spiced dressing on the chicken skewers was lovely. Very flavorful with medium heat. Luciano was a wonderful server. Very friendly with a great personality and attentive. Very large parking lot. Great music as well. Will be back if I'm in the area! read more

Went in on a football Sunday ! They have an amazing brunch area! Huge selection with delicious desserts, but didn't get the brunch thought. We stuck to the regular menu. They have great customer service , everybody there was super nice and fast. The food was exceptional, very tasty as well as the drinks. Very happy with our Sunday fun day there definitely will be going back. After brunch, they had an amazing band outside and the place got pretty crowded.. thank you for a fun experience . read more

We stopped by impromptu, coming back from the beach in Malibu for a quick drink and a little rest. Always enjoy coming to this place, so many memories of visiting here starting back in the 90s! We enjoyed the outdoor seating and split the chicken satay, which had a very nice presentation to it, see the pictures! Drinks were tasty and service was quite nice with the server being very friendly. The Sagebrush Cantina remains a wonderful place to visit even after all this time... read more

"A stable in Calabasas." I think you meant "staple" but maybe not. Lol. Yes, SC has been in a local landmark in the area but its history is the only reason to enjoy. I think the owners and management believe those past memories will be enough to keep us coming back. Wrong. This place is begging for Bar Rescue or some sort of intervention to make it a place I want to frequent again. My most recent visit was predictably bad; the food, service, drink and vibes were all lacking. This neighborhood deserves better but won't have management deflects and makes excuses for these posts. We want you to be better. From those of us who live here or pass through - you have so much potential and just wished I could be a regular like I was 10-15 years ago. I pass by 3-5 days a week... to go elsewhere. read more

My husband and I love this place. The food is amazing, everything taste authentic and delicious. The service is spectacular, our mimosas were not empty for over a min. Everyone is so nice. The ambiance is great on Sundays when mariachis are there. read more

My buddies and I have been going to lunch once a week for over 10 years. We rotate through about 5 or 6 restaurants. Sagebrush has been in the rotation the entire time. On a nice day, the ambiance on the patio can't be beat. The food is OK and the prices are fair for what you get. So why the one star rating? They just started having a $7 valet at lunchtime. We each arrive separately so the fee is adding 7 bucks to a lunch meal. Sorry, but that is a bridge too far. Sagebrush is no longer in our rotation. Calabasas area has too many places to eat lunch with no valet fees. I suspect they will lose a lot of lunchtime business with this new policy. read more

Awesome place to unwind and listen to live bands from rock to pop and salsa and ballads Ambiance top notch, you see people dancing and having a great time Service is on point with servers very attentive Did not tried the food so can speak on that other than the guacamole which was very good read more

The only reason this review isn't getting a 1 star is because the server who ended up helping us, after our original server let us sit for 30 min without as much as a hello, saved the day. Granted it was a busy Saturday night and it's graduation season, there were some pretty big parties, a slight delay is understandable, but 30 min with only the busser that brought us chips and water as our contact is pretty absurd. Note: the person who was supposed to be our server walked by and around our table maybe 10 times to her other tables and big party. We didn't wanna be rude (especially since when we got there there was another guest complaining loudly to the host about their wait) so after 30 min of no contact we asked the busser if they could grab our server. I saw the busser speak with a few people who all seemed to nod and give an ok, but still, nothing. Another 15 minutes go by with no server so finally we had to wave one down who wasn't our server. Thankfully we waved down Mitchell who was super cool and on point. He got our order, had a great attitude and was the only thing that held our experience together. As someone who works in service and a former server, I empathize with the chaos that comes with the industry but it's gonna happen, and you gotta be able to hold it down or know when to ask for help, or at least say hi? If it wasn't for Mitchell this review would've been a 1 star, which we all know is bad for business. Hopefully management takes this as a note to address their wait times. read more

The place felt unclean when we arrived, and the service was slow despite it not being very busy. The bathrooms were in bad condition, which made it tough to stay comfortable. The menu didn't offer many appealing options, and nothing stood out enough for us to want to order a meal. We originally planned to eat, but we left after one drink. It seems like it might work as a spot for a quick drink, but not much more. Overall, it just didn't match our style or what we look for when going out. read more

Well the brunch has never been a foodies deal, at $50 per person you would think that the food would be better. Everything I tried was either bland, the eggs Benedict, or overly salty (Everything else). The service was attentive and friendly and the day was perfect! I can see why people come after 2PM, grab a snack and listen to the live music. A much cheaper way to spend your day. For the four of us it was $380 with tip. read more

Waitress was amazing but why would they only have 1 waitress... seems unfair to her she was working too hard

Started in the parking lot $7 valet, but he didn't have a driver so he said park your own car! Then sat inside close to the door where the staff hangout cussing, eating their food and paying little attention to their customers. Food was more like fast food and not what I am use too from this establishment. It's definitely gone downhill. read more

This is a special spot. Especially if you grew up in the area. I've been here many times in my younger years. Fast forward 20 years, I brought my human here for dinner, and we had a great time. Unfortunately, it was raining, and we missed out on the outdoor experience. My chicken fajitas were absolutely delicious. A must order for any fajita lover. They were reasonably priced, and the portion was enough for two. My guy ordered the lobster enchiladas that were equally delicious, according to him. We washed them down with a couple of margaritas and a couple of baskets of chips and salsa. Service was friendly. Prices are great. I recommend coming on a summer night, eating outside, and bringing your doggy. They usually have live bands. Parking is $7.00. Even though it says Valet, you have to park yourself. read more

I've been to this place once before and remember it being absolutely packed, this time it was quite empty for 5pm. Not complaining, easy parking! I was greeted right away and lead to a booth to wait for my friend to show up, the drinks come super quick! I got the pineapple spicy margarita and it was delicious. My friend got her usual Cadillac margarita. We also ordered the appetizer platter and my favorite were the roll up thingys that were cheesy and gooey and delicious, though everything on it was good. The only thing drove me and my friend up the wall is the table seated by us with moms who didn't give a damn and let their children run wild yelling and dragging each other in the chairs which scraped across the floor. I wish the staff would have said something to them. Other than that, it's definitely a great spot to grab a drink after work, I will be coming back to try their sizzling platters that looked and smelled delicious (as they were being delivered to a nearby table) but we filled up on the apps so no room for that this visit. read more

Food, service, and really fun vibe! Greta place to hang out or enjoy live music! Here with @soundcheckmusic.

This place has gone down a lot. Not only do they impose a $15/per person minimum, but the food and service are just meh.. Old, dry chicken and watered down drinks. Plus the band who was playing when we were there was clearly amateur at best. Add to the fact that it's littered with MAGA rednecks and uh, yeah. Not going back. read more

Sagebrush cantina has been my family's favorite place to rent out a section for group parties for decades. Love it.

I love coming here in Sunday mornings for their all you can eat buffet. They have an egg/omelette station, seafood (oysters, shrimp, and salmon), meat, fruit and dessert stations. Plus it's all you can drink champagne and orange juice. It's around $35 per person. There's plenty of parking ($6) and indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Last Saturday I went to Sagebrush with my friend for the first time. I had chicken quesadilla and my friend cheeseburger. The food was good. The waitress was friendly, but it took her sometime to take our order. The ambiance was very nice. The only thing I didn't like: the music was very loud. I couldn't hear my friend talking to me. Overall it was very pleasant night and lots of dancing! I would definitely go back. read more
